More than 29,000 survey respondents representing over 143,000 employees provided input to this year’s Best Workplaces in Manufacturing & Production list.

Great Place to Work® analyzed each organization’s performance on over 50 survey questions anonymously rated by their staff. Employees throughout each organization were randomly invited to participate in the survey, which is designed to reveal whether it is consistently a great place to work for all its people. Meaning:

Do employees trust the people they work for?

Are they treated fairly and with respect?

Are people proud of their work?

Do they enjoy the folks they work with?

Are great experiences available to everyone or does it depend upon who you are and what job you perform?

How effective are executives at leading the organization and giving everyone an opportunity to innovate and contribute to the organization’s success?

How does the workplace compare to others of a similar employee population?

Great Place to Work also collected demographic and program data from organizations, but rankings were driven by employee feedback. To be considered, organizations had to meet the Great Place to Work-Certified standard and their survey results needed at least a 95% confidence level, and a 5% margin of error or lower.
